Henry Phillips has been seen performing his twisted songs and stories on Comedy Central, ABC’s ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ and NBC’s ‘Late Friday’. He can also be heard regularly on the Bob and Tom Show, performing such songs as ‘The Guitar Pill’ and ’She’s Talking Again’. His nationally released CDs, fusing mellow folk-rock ballads with psychopathic lyrics have earned him mention in Billboard magazine’s ’Critic’s Choice’, as well as acclaim from the king of novelty music himself, Dr. Demento, who referred to Phillips as “The funniest young singer-songwriter to come our way in quite a while.” Also, his biographical comedy film “Punching the Clown”, directed by Greg Viens, received the Audience award at Slamdance film festival ’09, and is continuing a successful run on the festival circuit.
